A Glance on the Distinctive Matrimonial Rituals of the Ezhavas
Ezhavas are the offspring of the ancient originators of the Chera
(Dravidian) dynasty, the Villavar. In different parts of south India,
they are differently known, such as Billavas in Tulu Nadu and Thiyya
in Malabar. At the earlier times, they were called as ‘llavar’ too.
About matrimonial rituals –
All the Hindu marriages in India have their own styles. Different
communities have their own traditional rituals. Basically the rituals
are followed according to the historical background associated with
each community.

Kerala is famous to have marriage ceremonies which are celebrated
for less than a week-long time. In Hindu culture, Keralians organize
shorter wedding events. And, Malayalam Ezhava matrimony is the
shortest. Usually it gets over in a single day’s time. And, the rituals are
organized without making any show-off.
Important customs of Ezhava matrimony –
• Ezhava brides and their family members start the ceremony by
worshiping lord Gauri. They ask for having the similar power of the
goddess to make their married life successful and prosperous.
• On the house the grooms, they worship lord Ganesha, the first-
worshipped, for asking His blessings before starting their marital life.

• Then Muhurtham is decided by their family astrologer. It is nothing
but the time and date of the Hindu Ezhava matrimony.
• After deciding the wedding date, a venue gets finalized for
organizing the rituals. Along with all the guests, relatives and family
members both the bride and groom reach there. The panditji utters
the mantras and performs the wedding rituals.
• Brides are carried to the Mnadapam by her family and relatives. She
sits inside a basket. Her father performs the Kanyadan ritual which
signifies he hands over the responsibilities of his daughter’s
happiness and sorrow to the hands of her life partner, forever! Then
the marriage couple circles around the yagya fire taking oaths of
marriage.
• Finally, the groom ties the Mangalsutra around the neck of his life
partner. This represents his determination and promise to protect his
wife for the lifetime from every odds and obstacles in life.
Every wedding happens with the similar goal which is to unite two
souls together for a lifetime so that they may live happily ever after.
Malayalam Ezhava matrimony is no different! Through performing
mesmerizing and engaging traditional rituals, every Ezhava wedding
is organized.
